Sporting Scrans.

The Detroit team spent yesterday afternoon
at the Minneapolis park, engaged in practice.
AS a rule the men are small, instead of big
giants, but they certainly know how to play
ball. A practice game between the Mime
appolis league team and picked nine largely
from the University, was also played, but was
entirely uninteresting.
A game of ball, between picked nine of
Madison and a picked UP nine from Dawson,
played at the former place Saturday, resulted
in as.victory for the Dawson boys :score I6 to 8.
John P. Glow, the middle weight champion
of the West, and Mart Fahey, the rising
young heavyweight of Minneapolis, signed
articles yesterday for ten-round glove con-
test, to take place at the Washington rink.
Minneapolis, next Monday evening. On the
same occasion Pat Killen, champion of the
Northwest, will meet an unknown in four
round set-to. The articles call for a division
of the gate as follows: Seventy-five per cent
to the winner, 25 per cent. to the loser; ref
cree to be selected from the audience. This
promises to be a hard contest, as the men are
nearly of size.
Tommy Warren has written from La
Crosse, WIS.,, where he is training for his con-
test with George Phalen at the Minneapolis
Comique on Friday evening of this week. that

a certainty that Danforth and Warren will
meet here shortly.
